Many of the popular enneagram books, such as The Wisdom of the Enneagram or Personality Types: Using the Enneagram for Self-Discovery, were written in the 1980s and ’90s. But as younger generations become interested, a resurgence of books has been published, shining a new light on this ancient system. People now use the enneagram to guide their own self-growth, build relationships, explore spirituality, and more. If you’ve recently learned about this personality system, or are curious to learn more, here are five modern books about the enneagram. Note: There is a lack of enneagram books written by people of color. As this system of personality typing gains popularity, it is my hope that books published on the topic better reflect a vast range of experiences.
